Hello Sanjiv ,
Psoriasis is a long-term skin issue — causes red, scaly patches, mostly on the scalp, elbows, legs, and face. Often gets worse with stress, cold weather, or certain foods. Creams and diets may give short relief, but a deeper approach is needed. In Ayurveda, it is due to Vata and Kapha imbalance — leads to dryness, itching, and inflammation.
How long have you had psoriasis, and have the patches been increasing or spreading?
Do you notice flare-ups during specific seasons or after eating certain foods?
Have you experienced joint pain, stiffness, or swelling, which may suggest psoriatic arthritis?
Are you under stress or facing any emotional challenges?
What medications, creams, or therapies have you tried, and how effective were they? Please share this information to help you and suggest proper management.

Hello Sanjiv, Psoriasis is often linked to imbalanced pitta and vata doshas, leading to inflammation, dryness, and scaling. Since it is a chronic condition, a deeper detoxification approach is needed.
Please provide more details on your digestion, bowel habits, stress levels, and any past illnesses or treatments. Have you noticed seasonal flare-ups, itching severity, or any triggers like stress or certain foods?
For ayurvedic treatment, consider taking maha manjisthadi kwath or sarivadyasava for blood purification, gandhak rasayan to reduce skin inflammation, and a mixture of neem and turmeric with warm water daily. Applying coconut oil mixed with neem or kumkumadi oil can help with scalp and skin dryness. Panchatikta ghrita guggulu is also beneficial for chronic skin conditions.
Avoid spicy, sour, and fried foods, and increase bitter and cooling foods like karela, neem, and aloe vera juice. Practice abhyanga (self-massage) with medicated oils and follow a regular routine with yoga and pranayama to manage stress.
